A little picture heavy but it paints a picture of my trip. I will try to keep it short in words. First thing I have to state os that I do not have sea legs! Even though you would think with one of the huge P&O boats you wouldn't feel much, well I haven't felt so sick and dizzy in a long time, I hardly got any sleep at all.

To start the morning it wasn't too warm but I was dressed sensible for once which is unlike me, we had a hour and half bus journey from Rotterdam into Amsterdam with the most annoying scottish bus driver who tales the whole way to the whole bus and I studiedly did not bring my headphones. First impressions of Amsterdam was theres a lot more bikes than what I thought and it looks a little like Dublin.

In usual me style we headed to McDonalds to grab a bite to eat and get our bearings.

We did not have any places in particular to visit as I was to lazy to research any and we were both rather skint so it was just a day of pondering the streets really.

I wish I had known it was like walking York with all the old cobbled streets as this did not do my poorly ankle any good at all so it was a slow walk around all day.

I have to say all the locals were ever so friendly unlike most places I have being to and great that you don't have to worry about the language barrier as much as other countries.

I can't say it was my best day out as I got shat on my a bird which went all down my coat and into my handbag and over my passport. I couldn't look up much at the city as I was watching where I was walking on the cobbles and my boyfriend wen't all rosy cheeked in the red light district!

I would love to go again but to say it seemed like there was a lot of fashionable 20 something year olds I don't know where they shop because we could hardly find any clothes shops.

On the boat back I was shattered. I hadn't bought a single thing in Amsterdam expect food and coffee so I thought I would treat myself with my last €10 on one of the Holland collection OPI nail varnish as I thought that would be rather fitting. I would say check them out if you are into your OPI they have some lovely colours in the collection.

Hope you enjoyed my photos and turns out I didn't keep it short in words! Check out my next post of the OPI Holland nail varnish I bought.
